Correcting a dyslexic on spelling. Classy.
I don't know how I was supposed to know you're dyslexic, given that, oddly enough, you've spelled every other word correctly. In any case, you're sitting in front of a computer (or holding one), which would allow you easily to check the spelling, dyslexic or not.
I almost vomited reading your reply
You should probably find something else to do if you have this strong an over-reaction to a person answering a question that you asked.
Naive if you think he’ll make any difference
Every other Labour government - in fact, every social democratic government anywhere in the world - has come to power in the face of this kind of rhetoric. Yet, they generally do make a positive difference. Indeed, you must think they do, otherwise you wouldn't be left wing.
I’m not sure if you saw the regular backtrack on pledges
I saw a politician adjusting their platform to take into account a changing situation and to try and make it more appealling to voters, which is what is supposed to happen in a democracy. The alternative is politicians not listening to voters, which is not something you can want. Regardless of the changes Starmer's made and whether they were necessary (obviously I think some of them were and some of them weren't, but we'll never know who was right), he's retained the overall commitment towards greater economic and social justice which he started with and which every Labour government has both promised and delivered. I can't say for sure if his plans will work out, of course, but the track record of Labour governments is basically good.
If it ain’t in the manifesto, it will not get past the lords. Keir is going to get in power and do very little differently from the Tories. Reeves stated as much in regards to the NHS.
Three sentences, none of them true. We've already discussed one way Labour will be very different (decarbonising the grid) which was in the original pledges and is also in the manifesto. Regarding the NHS specifically, Labour's first step is 'Cut NHS waiting times with 40,000 more evening and weekend appointments each week, paid for by cracking down on tax avoidance and non-doms.'. You can see their longer-term mission here. These are not the same as the Tories' policies, obviously.
You won’t believe me though and when you see it yourself, you’ll go through all sorts of logical contortions as if you already knew and expected it. It’ll take a long time before you ever ask yourself if you haven’t got anything perfectly right.
Hypothetically, if you heard two people having a conversation and one of them kept saying they could accurately predict the future, while the other argued that there was too much uncertainty to do so, and acknowledging that what they thought was going to happen might well not happen, which of the two would you think was more likely to ask themselves if they'd got everything right?
hung parliament
A Labour party with a hung parliament would find it harder, not easier, to pass legislation of any kind, including the things we both want for the NHS and green energy. The track record of the SNP on delivering green policies is poor and the track record of Lib Dems and Greens on the same is just NIMBYism or impossibilism (both, in the case of the Greens).
In elections where people have followed your advice and voted Lib Dem, Green, SNP or Plaid in large numbers, the result has not been a hung parliament with Labour as the largest party. This is what happened in 2010, 2015, 2017 and 2019. All very different elections, yes, but all elections where the left-leaning vote was split. My suggestion is that instead of trying your tactic, which has failed four times in a row, we try a tactic which has, at least at some points in history, actually delivered something other than a Tory government.
It is in any case impossible to reconcile your argument that Labour are going to win a landslide anyway, so it's safe not to vote for them, with your argument that you can take lots of seats off Labour by voting for another party. The fact remains that if your ideal situation is 'Labour are the largest party [with or without a majority]' the only sensible course of action is to vote Labour.
